Paris Hilton to guest star on the upcoming season of "Supernatural". I would make a joke about Supernatural being lame, but I've noticed lately that its fanbase is especially rabid when it comes to these things... so I'm putting up the white flag. The show's great! Love it!
"Orphan" comes home on DVD and Blu-ray on October 27th. Wow... that was quick!
Bryan Singer to produce 2012 themed miniseries for Syfy. Wow, that's the greatest/worst sentence I've ever typed. I don't think I'll be able to resist.
News landed today that starting on September 2nd, the unreleased episodes from last summer's "Fear Itself" will be available on FearNET. There will be 5 episodes in total.
On casting news, "True Blood's" Ann Woll joins the cast of Darren Lynn Bousman's "Mother's Day" remake. No word on what character she'll be playing. The production is shooting for a Spring release, so expect production to ramp up pretty quickly as we move into late Summer/Fall.
So Robert Rodriguez's "Machete" has the weirdest cast ever. Robert Deniro, Lindsay Lohan, Michelle Rodriguez... I'm pretty sure this is some kind apocalyptic sign here. Syfy should write this into their miniseries.
This guy's scam to cheat on his wife and swindle women through Craigslist was going really well, until he got caught and they super-glued his dangle to his stomach. Awwwwww shit... I don't care what that guy did, that is NOT COOL.
Newscorp says online news will not be free for much longer. He added, "unless of course you visit bloodygoodhorror.com, that's the greatest site ever and it's totally free". Ya I thought that was weird too, but I thought it best not to question.
1945: At 9:15am, Col. Paul Tibbets releases "Little Boy" over Hiroshima and executes a hard, 159-degree turn. 40 seconds later, the Atomic Bomb detonates, yielding a 12.5 kiloton explosion and a huge, black mushroom cloud. About 45,000 people are killed immediately, and another 200,000 are killed in later years by leukemia and other radiation illnesses.

It's been a long road. But some cystic fibrosis patients in Canada may be on the verge of reaping the benefits of a gene discovery made in Toronto in 1989.
The first drug to address a genetic mutation that causes CF in some patients has been approved for sale by Health Canada, the drug's manufacturer, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, announced this week. The drug will be marketed under the name Kalydeco; its generic name is ivacaftor.
The news is being hailed as a major step forward by advocates for CF patients. But even those celebrating know getting the enormously expensive drug into the hands of the people who need it is a hurdle that remains to be cleared.
"Price is an issue," admits Ken Chan, vice-president for advocacy, research and health care for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Canada.
Vertex says the drug will sell in Canada for about the same price as has been set for the U.S. and British markets, where the drug was introduced earlier this year. That price: roughly $300,000 a year.
"This is not the price that patients will pay. We are working with federal, provincial and territorial governments and private health insurers to make Kalydeco available to all eligible Canadians," Megan Goulart, Vertex's senior manager for CF product communications, said via e-mail.
"This process is under way and is a part of determining what insurers will pay."
The CF Foundation – whose sister organization in the U.S. helped to fund the development of the drug – is supporting the company's application to the Common Drug Review, hoping that body will recommend that provinces add Kalydeco to their drug formularies, or the medications covered by provincial drug benefit plans. The Common Drug Review does cost-benefit analyses for all provincial drug formularies, except that of Quebec.
Kalydeco is only a treatment option for between 3 and 4 per cent of the roughly 4,000 Canadians who have cystic fibrosis. That's because it addresses the disease process triggered by a mutation that causes that percentage of CF cases, the G551D mutation.
CF is a genetic disease most commonly found in Northern Europe and countries with high levels of people of Northern European descent, such as the United States, Australia and Canada. There are about 70,000 CF sufferers worldwide.
Faulty coding in a single gene – which was discovered in 1989 by researchers at Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children – leads to a disease where thick mucus is created in the lungs.
That mucus makes the lungs of CF patients vulnerable to frequent infections. CF patients must typically spend between two and six hours a day undergoing physiotherapy and inhaling nebulized antibiotics and other drugs to try to maintain good lung function.
While the life expectancy of CF patients has improved dramatically, the disease shortens lives. The median age of a CF patient in Canada is now about 48 years old. But half of the people in Canada who died from the disease last year were under 26, says Dr. Elizabeth Tullis, director of the adult CF clinic at Toronto's St. Michael's Hospital.
Tullis, who was involved in the testing done to bring Kalydeco to market, says the drug is a paradigm shift for treatment of CF. To date, medical options have dealt with the consequences of mucus buildup. This drug addresses the cellular level problem that creates the mucus in the first place.
A study of the drug published last fall in the New England Journal of Medicine showed patients on the drug had significantly better lung function, fewer infections and were able to gain weight – a problem with this disease – when compared to people taking a placebo.
And the improvements were seen in even in older patients, whose lungs have accumulated years of damage from the disease, says Tullis, who has served as a consultant and a paid adviser for Vertex.
Tullis runs North America's largest CF clinic. She has five patients who were in the trial and who now have been on the drug for two years. "What they've been able to do since having the drug is truly remarkable," she says.
She says it's hoped that sustained use of the drug will lessen the amount of daily therapy people with CF must undergo, though whether that will be the case isn't currently known.
And Tullis says the introduction of a medication that addresses the disease process, not the downstream effects of the disease, offers people with CF and their doctors hope that similar drugs will be developed that can be used by the majority of CF patients.

HERMIE: A Common Caterpillar
Bestselling Christian author Lucado appears in the opening moments of this animated video, introducing his most recent project, "A Just Like Jesus Story" starring Hermie the caterpillar. Hermie, voiced by Tim Conway, laments the fact that he is ordinary—not strong like an ant, beautiful like a ladybug or resourceful like a snail. Each time he compares his shortcomings to the seemingly superior attributes of another creature, Hermie prays to God, asking about his predicament. The reply comes, "I'm not finished with you yet." Of course, Hermie doesn't understand God's wisdom until he transforms into a butterfly (as does his pal Wormie, voiced by Don Knotts). Lucado appears at the story's end to explain that God does not necessarily "give us new wings," but he "gives us a new heart." Unfortunately, the message may be a bit muffled for some young viewers who see Hermie accepting himself only after he's no longer a caterpillar. Quality animation (paying homage to Antz and A Bug's Life), music and voice talent buoy this effort. Ages 3-up. (Jan.)

Gov. Jindal Draws Correction From Church for Contraception Op-Ed
In a Dec. 13 Wall Street Journal editorial, the Louisiana governor expresses support for over-the-counter access to birth control.
BATON ROUGE, La. — Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal has voiced his support for over-the-counter access to birth control, a position that Church representatives say goes against Catholic teaching on contraception.
"The Archdiocese of New Orleans disagrees with Governor Jindal's stance on this issue, as the use of birth control and contraceptives are against Catholic Church teaching," Sarah Comiskey McDonald, communications director for the Archdiocese of New Orleans, told EWTN News Dec. 14.
Robert Tasman, associate director of the Louisiana Conference of Catholic Bishops, also echoed the archdiocese's statement.
Jindal, a Catholic, argued in a Dec. 13 editorial for The Wall Street Journal that allowing access to artificial birth control without a prescription would remove politics from contraception while also protecting the rights of individuals who are morally opposed to paying for its coverage.
In his opinion piece, Jindal cited a recommendation from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists that says birth control should be available over the counter, arguing that unintended pregnancies are a "major public-health problem" in the U.S.
Jindal said the two reasons women must visit a doctor for a prescription for a drug that "research says is safe" is "because big government says they should" and "because big pharmaceutical companies benefit from it."
"It's time to put purchasing power back in the hands of consumers — not employers, not pharmaceutical companies and not bureaucrats in Washington," he said.
He added that this arrangement would ensure that "anyone who has a religious objection to contraception" would not be "forced by government health-care edicts to purchase it for others."
The governor, who has been mentioned as a possible 2016 Republican presidential candidate, said making birth control available over the counter to adults would "take contraception out of the political arena" as well as help cut health-care costs.
He criticized his party, saying that it is "stupid to let the Democrats demagogue the contraceptives issue."
While he described himself as "an unapologetic pro-life Republican" the governor said that "everyone who wants contraception should be able to purchase it."
In his 1968 encyclical Humanae Vitae, Pope Paul VI categorically rejected contraception as immoral. The encyclical specifies that it is morally unacceptable to engage in "any action which either before, at the moment of or after sexual intercourse is specifically intended to prevent procreation — whether as an end or as a means" (14).
Jindal's press office did not respond to inquiries from EWTN News.

Altenburg is perhaps best known for its quaint old quarter and as the home of German playing cards, but through Georg Spalatin, one of Luther's main comrades and supporters, it also had an important role in the history of the Reformation.
Spalatin is known as the 'architect of the Reformation'. With Luther's support, he was determined to put Reformation ideas into practice in Altenburg.
Visitors to this Thuringian town will stumble across Reformation history in many places. From 2014 a permanent exhibition in St. Bartholomew's Church will illustrate the influence of the Reformation, with the 'red spires' showing the abbeys' status at that time. Spalatin worked as a preacher at the castle church. The historical Spalatin garden is dedicated to the 'architect of the Reformation'.
The imposing castle in this former ducal town houses a playing card museum as well as many art treasures. The historical old quarter is the perfect place for a leisurely stroll. Altenburg's market square, one of the most beautiful in Germany, feels a little like Siena in Italy. A host of museums, musical and literary events, traditional fairs and craft markets give this historical town a contemporary buzz.

35 years ago a movie appeared that began a genre of its own. Loosely based on the horror genre that used any animal from killer shrews to giant ants, the film featured Mother Nature gone wild and becoming the most terrifying of all creatures. That film was JAWS and the movies that paid tribute to in whether directly or not is long. GRIZZLY, TENTACLES and the original PIRANHA all used the set up of a town making money due to the holiday influx of people only to be confronted with a menace putting them all in danger.
Fans of those films, in particular the gory horror films of the eighties, have been making movies that they remember from their childhoods. And now we have one of the better homage to those films with the new version of PIRANHA. Director Alexander Aja states in the extras on this DVD that he loved those movies and saw a chance to offer a tribute to them. He does an exceptional job here. But be warned, this movie is not for kids at all. The extreme combination of nudity and gore make it one for adults only.
The story focuses on spring break in the community of Lake Victoria. Every year thousands of teens commandeer the beaches there to celebrate, which of course for them involves taking off clothes and consuming extreme amounts of alcohol. The woman in charge of keeping order is Sheriff Julie Foster (Elizabeth Shue). Sheriff Foster's job is usually pretty calm but spring break offers all sorts of new trouble.
Foster's son is Jake (Steven R. McQueen), about to graduate high school and always tied down babysitting his siblings during spring break which keeps him out of trouble as well. But this year Jake grabs an opportunity when home video producer Derrick Jones (Jerry O'Connell) hires him as a guide to the lake. Jones is shooting a film, one of the many Girls Gone Wild knockoffs. Yes, Jake gets a chance at seeing naked women and alcohol just like the rest of the kids.
Along for the ride is the object of Jake's affection, Kelly (Jessica Szohr), now a college student and home for break. These two have an obvious affection for one another that for one reason or another never saw the light of day. Her acceptance of a trip on the Derrick's boat doesn't make Jake happy but what can he say now that he works for him?
At the opening of the film we witness a minor underwater earthquake that opens up a subterranean lake that releases the titled menace, a prehistoric piranha that is more dangerous than those around today. Its first victim (in what is perhaps the best cameo since Bill Murray in ZOMBIELAND) is Richard Dreyfuss in a minor tribute to his role as Matt Hooper in JAWS. That alone makes this one worth watching.
When a scientific group comes in to check out the seismic activity that happened underwater, they're the first to officially discover the piranha. Now the Sheriff has no choice but to close the beaches. Of course we know how well that will go over. In one of the most extremely gory scenes of carnage ever filmed the spring breakers ignore the demand to get out of the water and summarily become chow for the rampaging fish. Body parts and blood are everywhere so fans of that will be pleased. Non-fans may find fascinating the way they make it all seem so real.
While the initial attack is going on, Jake and his new friends find themselves in danger as well. Having rescued his siblings (who snuck out and got stuck on an island after ignoring his warning to stay home), their boat crashes and is sinking slowly. Setting aside the fact he snuck out as well for the job, he contacts his mother to come to their aid.
A simple enough story, right? But it all works and works well. The characters are simple ones that could have been cardboard cutouts but each is given enough meat on their bones to make them real. And the acting by everyone involved, from the aforementioned actors to Ving Rhames as Shue's deputy and Christopher Lloyd as a semi-mad scientist who studies fish, isn't lame and makes each one believable.
I saw this film when it was released in 3D and even in 2D it works. My initial reaction was that it was a bit hokey but on second viewing the film actually has some scary moments. The pacing, direction, photography, all are top notch here, especially some of the underwater photography and special effects shots.
All in all the film is a great evening's entertainment for horror and non-horror fans alike. But as I stated earlier, the film has some realistic gore moments and tons of nudity. For the record let me state that exposed breasts in 3D look the same in 2D. While the film makers state (in the extras) that they were paying tribute to the horror movies of the 80s that had both tons of gore and nudity, none had them to the extreme offered here. But if you can get past those two items, you'll find a movie that offers scares, humor and a great production that makes it worth the price of rental if not purchase.

Prayer Requests
Today, I am thankful! My human mom had surgery, yesterday. She did not tell many people and she also did not tell my furry brothers and I. Dad brought her back home and put her to bed. We knew she needed us. I never left her side. She doesn't leave my side when I don't feel well and I was not about to leave her. Yesterday, she had a tough day, but she is much better this morning. She is sipping her coffee and clinging to her heating pad and Bible. We are remaining close and will continue to make sure she gets what she needs. If dad is not quick enough to respond to her, we bark and paw at him. He is a great dad and husband. He never left Mom's side either.
There has been a lot going on around our house and we received more news last night of more prayer needs. Mom has sat up long enough to post it all on her blog, Arise 2 Write. Please jump over and storm the heavens with Mom for several people in URGENT need of prayer. Mom has a prayer button for her friend MaryGrace on Arise 2 Write, but has not posted on here, yet. Please pick it up over there. She hopes to have one for Kailly, soon.
Woofs and Wags,

ACC to honor principal, long-time volunteer
May 25, 2004
This year, the Arlington Civic Council will honor Arlington Middle School Principal Kevin McGuire as their Person of the Year and present Community Service Awards to Laverne Dixon and Domino's Pizza at the ACC's annual awards dinner on June 7.
Principal McGuire has gone the extra mile, working evenings and weekends to help the students at Arlington Middle School reach educational excellence. The STEPS program he piloted in the middle school has received acclaim for helping students reach proficiency on the state required PSSA pre-tests.
As a facilitator and administrator, he has brought the teachers, reading coaches and students together in an effort to see everyone succeed. Additionally, he has supported community projects from writing contests to a recent clean up around the Henry Kaufmann Center with students.
McGuire began his teaching career at Saint George Elementary School. Following his receiving a Masters Degree from the University of Pittsburgh, he became director for non-profit youth agencies on the Northside of Pittsburgh.
His career path then led him to the New Kensington/Arnold school district where he served as a principal. Four years later, he first served as a principal in the Pittsburgh Public Schools.
Dixon, a long-time member of the ACC, has been an active volunteer in Arlington since 1965. She was, in fact, part of the group that would later become the Arlington Civic Council.
Dixon has served as the organization's treasurer, chair of the Schools Committee that fought alongside Neighborhood Legal Services to sue the Pittsburgh Public Schools to insure all students would receive bus passes to get to and from South High School. She has also helped with the Boy Scouts, Saint Henry's School PTA and Foodshare at Bishop Leonard.
Currently, she is treasurer of Arlington Meals on Wheels and pitches in when ever she is needed in the kitchen or for deliveries. She is also a representative for the Henry Kaufmann Center Allentown Senior Center and volunteers for many tasks that make the Arlington Civic Council the organization it is today.
The council will also present a second Community Service Award to the South Side Domino's Pizza. Domino's has been a good neighbor to the organization, most recently having provided the pizza for the Arlington Civic Council's bingo and the Walk for the Cure on Mother's Day. Other organizations they have helped include the Carnegie Library and Urban Youth of America.
The Arlington Civic Council's Awards Dinner will take place on Monday, June 7 at the Henry Kaufmann Center, corner of Salisbury and Fernleaf streets. This year's dinner will feature a Hawaiian Luau with diners having a choice of chicken or pork dishes.
For more information or to purchase tickets, call Bobbie Stiefvater at 412-481-5562. Deadline for making reservations is June 2.

At the price of just a few dollars L.A. Noire gamers can see what this spring's gently-paced acclaimed detective adventure would have been like if it was more of an action game.
A new downloadable arson case, Nicholson Electroplating, presents L.A. Noire at its action extreme.
I played the case this weekend in advance of its official release. It took me about 80 minutes, complete with all clues found, one bungled interrogation restarted and almost all of the driving handled by my partner, Herschel Biggs. That length felt right for a case that started with a massive explosion and followed with a gunfight, included a car chase and, in general, more action than any other case in Team Bondi and Rockstar's game.
The Nicholson Electroplating case involves a massive explosion at an industrial plant. It winds its way, as last week's trailer for Nicholson Electroplating showed, into the real-life realm of the famously bizarre captain of industry Howard Hughes and, more specifically, his notorious jumbo plane, the "Spruce Goose." As Phelps chases leads and bad guys, even the game's evidence-based clues prove to be more "video game"-y than what was typical in L.A. Noire. A handful of clues involve solving small puzzles—nothing too hard, but they do involve more than just peering at the label on clothing or reading the writing on the back of a photo.
The case doesn't feel misfiled. It does belong in L.A. Noire. In fact, it nestles neatly into the late part of the game's plot, right as the game is about to kick into its grand finale. Incidental dialogue between Phelps and Biggs, plus comments from supporting characters in this case, ties into the game's overall plot. But the tone of Nicholson Electroplating and its mixture of gameplay certainly lean more toward what a typical gamer might have expected from L.A Noire. Moreso than the main L.A. Noire game, it presents a detective adventure that follows any moment of quiet examination or interactive conversation with some sort of violence or the interactive doing-of—slightly-tricky-things. While the case does fit into the game and can even be played within the flow of the main game (I didn't; I played it from the case menu), it proves to be an interesting tonal diversion, making things feel a little closer to action game than old-school adventure game. L.A. Noire's critics couldn't accuse this case of feeling like an interactive movie.
You are detective Cole Phelps again. You're still spending a lot of time peering at clues and keeping your gun holstered about as much as you do in any game this side of Tetris. But if you want to see L.A. Noire of a slightly different, more typical flavor—or simply want to extend the game out with its fourth downloadable case of five, give it a shot.
The Nicholson Electroplating case is out today for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. While it costs $4 if bought alone, it can be bought as part of a Rockstar Pass, a bundle of existing and forthcoming L.A. Noire downloadable content the cuts the per-case cost in half.

Selling a home is not an easy task. If you are planning to sell the home on your own without the help of a seller's agent, you need to keep a few things in mind before putting your house on the market. Not planning everything properly can lead to all sorts of problems later on.
To help you steer clear through the home selling process, here are a few tips for the first time home sellers:
Don't Overprice your Property- Deciding on the correct price for your property is the most difficult part of the sale. Though the Real Estate Prices in India have always been appreciating, you should not set an unrealistic price for your property. A little market research is needed for coming at the correct price since the purchasing power of the buyer depends on several economic conditions.
Make a List of Important Documents–
Documentation is also one of the most important tasks. If you have bifurcated the price of your property according to the parking spaces, modifications, etc., mention the same in the deed and keep a proof of it handy. It should also contain a record of the property tax you paid and about the home loan closure, if you opted for it. It is very important to maintain a file of all these documents as they will be needed for the income tax returns you file for the year of sale.

Marriage. It's what brings us together, today…
It is, after all, the Mother of all decisions–I mean, when we're in the market for a car, a house, a job, or a sandwich, must we pronounce our love and fidelity to the Passat or the Pastrami til death do us part? Of course not. (And thank god for that, or I swear to you, I would be wheel-less, homeless, unemployed and starving.) And a couple of new books shine a little light on an interesting point: when it comes to that infamous "Piece of Paper," could it be the decision-making part of the Til Death Do Us Part that does us in?
First, consider the new book "A Little Bit Married," just released this week, written by journalist/blogger Hannah Seligson. Of the project, Seligson writes at the Daily Beast:
'A Little Bit Marrieds' are the ones that write a prenup on a piece of loose-leaf paper as they move in, detailing who paid for the Ikea bureau, who brought the flat-screen TV, whose parents gave them the bed. They don't share the cost of anything 'just in case.' They each have separate shelf units for their books and DVDs. Are they roommates or are they building a life together? Are they husband and wife, girlfriend and boyfriend, or roommates? They may have seen friends go through the whole lifecycle–dating, marriage, and kids–but they still don't own a couch together. Each thinks the other person is marriage material, but how can they commit when there are un-traveled continents and four more career paths to explore? Everything is great–but what if there is something better out there?
What if, indeed? It's the classic conundrum–no one wants to make the wrong decision. And the easiest way to ensure we don't is to avoid commitment altogether, to keep the doors open, to see for yourself whether that grass is greener. Or, at the very least–and more to the point–to reserve the right to take off to see for yourself about that grass at any time.
Interestingly, the issue of choice comes up in "Committed," Elizabeth Eat Pray Gilbert's latest, as well, albeit in a different context. Check what The New Yorker's Ariel Levy has to say:
For all the variability in the meaning of marriage, one fairly consistent element over time and place was that it had nothing to do with love. "For most of history it was inconceivable that people would choose their mates on the basis of something as fragile and irrational as love and then focus all their sexual, intimate, and altruistic desires on the resulting marriage," [Stephanie] Coontz [author of "Marriage, a History"] writes. In fact, loving one's spouse too much was considered a threat to social and religious order, and was discouraged in societies as disparate as ancient Greece, medieval Islam, and contemporary Cameroon. The modern Western ideal of marriage as both romantic and companionate is an anomaly and a gamble. As soon as people in any culture start selecting spouses based on emotion, the rates of broken marriages shoot up. "By unnerving definition," Gilbert writes, "anything that the heart has chosen for its own, mysterious reasons it can always unchoose."
Ultimately, Gilbert is clear about what she, like most people, wants: everything. We want intimacy and autonomy, security and stimulation, reassurance and novelty, coziness and thrills. But we can't have it.
So. The lure of what's still out there makes it difficult for us to commit. As does the weight of the personal responsibility inherent in making a choice, especially one based on something as fickle as feelings–and then, by virtue of looking at it as a choice, the likelihood that at some point someone will decide they chose wrong. It all reminds me of something one of the women we've interviewed for the book said once–albeit while agonizing over another big question, that of What To Do With Her Life: Sometimes I wish I was born in some other country where everything from career to spouse would be chosen for me.
It would be easier that way, wouldn't it? Maybe even happier. But, alas, here we are. For better or worse.

DWHS Inc.(now WebHost.pro) was started in 2001 by corporate webmasters that got fed up with web hosting services that had hidden charges and unstable networks. At the time web hosting had a serious need for services that where affordable and professional.
Two webmasters from Los Angeles partnered up to make the best possible web hosting service with no misleading information and the fastest most reliable network possible. Even today hosts still have these unrealistic offers to entice uninformed website owners. The truth is these hosts will have thousands of websites on one server. Here at DWHS we limit our servers to about 300 websites, this means much faster and more reliable connections at all times. We also removed slow fiber connections like Verio, Cogent, and many others to keep our blended network the fastest possible at all times. Some of our competitors use these unstable connections as their main connection! Simply put, we will always offer the best possible service and continually get better all for the lowest possible price.

Three elderly women were killed this morning in Albany, New York, when a 55-year-old woman driving a Toyota Highlander drove into a group of people standing on the sidewalk. Unintended acceleration? Not so much. Her flip-flop was caught under the gas pedal. Another sad case illustrating the real cause of unintended acceleration — beige cars being driven by people of an advanced age.
The accident happened around 8:30 a.m. when 55-year-old Luanne Burgess lost control of her Toyota SUV off Route 85A, driving into a group of adults that were part of a walking group. Three members of the walking group were killed and declared dead on the scene.
Police say Burgess had just dropped her 6-year-old foster child off at daycare and her foot or flip-flop she was wearing became stuck on the gas pedal, accelerating the car.
The driver's injuries aren't life-threatening.
Acting Albany County Sheriff Craig Apple called this accident "one of the most horrific accident scenes he has ever seen."

Detroit is for loversSubmitted by John Roderick on June 1, 2003 - 4:03pm
The tour is going great. I'm writing from Quebec City, but I wanted to start off by describing the city of Detroit, Michigan.
I'm sure that most readers of this board have some idea already that Detroit is in pretty bad shape, and many of you probably imagine that it is a frightening and terrible place. Detroit has become synonymous with urban decay. I had a web of preconceptions about the city and was excited and a little apprehensive about venturing out into the city by myself after we arrived. What I saw amazed me beyond all measure.

Hi. We're on tour and visiting in Chicago with Evan Sult, former drummer of Harvey Danger, and his three cats. I wanted to write another diary entry now that the debate on indie-rock pretentiousness has dried up. So far our tour with Nada Surf is going swimmingly. They're treating us very well and are excellent men.
AlignmentSubmitted by John Roderick on May 9, 2003 - 4:23pm
On the topic of pretentiousness:
It may surprise you to learn that some of the members of the Long Winters struggle with pretentiousness. In fact, I can only think of one of the four of us that doesn't seem to struggle with it and I'll leave it open as to which one of us that is. Point being, when I say we struggle with it I mean a couple of different things and they relate directly to my writing on this web site so I want to cover them early on. So follow me.
How the Long Winters actually became a band.Submitted by John Roderick on May 6, 2003 - 12:00pm
I started writing the songs for the second record as soon as I got to New York. Bride and Bridle, Sound of Coming Down, Stupid and Shapes all came pretty quickly as I lay on my bare mattress at 117th and 3rd in Spanish Harlem listening to car alarms in 110 degree heat. I love New York and was filled with joy.
Our PromisesSubmitted by John Roderick on May 6, 2003 - 1:46am
Hey everyone, thanks for visiting our new site. We're putting it out here in conjunction with the release of our new record but we'd love it if thelongwinters.com became a regular part of your internet life. To that end we'd like to make a few promises to you, the viewer, so that this site can be a safe place for you to return to time and again when the pressures of daily life become unbearable.
Musings on The Worst You Can Do is HarmSubmitted by John Roderick on April 30, 2003 - 12:00pm
The year 2000 was a very full year. The first thing that happened in January of that year was that I was asked to join Harvey Danger as the touring keyboardist. They knew me from around town and Sean and I had recently struck up a friendship based on eating steak and talking about how smart we were compared to other people.
Why we made a websiteSubmitted by John Roderick on April 26, 2003 - 3:56am
When it came time to make a Long Winters web-site we worried that it might be a big waste of time. Plenty of people told us that we needed a web-site for 'commercial' purposes, but those people tended to be the same ones that asked us repeatedly when we were going to go back to college. We didn't start a band because we wanted to be merchants. Obviously, the real appeal of the global inter-web is all the conversation taking place.

A Lifetime of Collecting
The urge to collect started for Forrest Fenn at age nine when he found his first arrowhead. It was just lying there in a plowed field on Little Elm Creek in Central Texas, waiting for him to come along. He still claims it is the most treasured object in his collection. "It was a thrill that started me on a long journey of adventure and discovery," he said.

Almost every tech blogger I run across publishes some sort of Top Ten list of iOS apps at some point in their blog. Not to be outdone, I present my own list here, but whether it has ten apps and whether it manages to sell stuff to anyone remains to be seen. With any luck this post will let you see how we're using iPads as creative devices, not as content delivery devices.
If you've been following this blog, you may remember that at the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year I managed to get around 40 iPad 2's for my students to use. These were given out primarily to my Anatomy students but some found their way into Physics students' hands as well. If you're interested in some notes on the deployment check here.
The deployment this year was similar, but was aided greatly by the addition of a Mac Mini as a sync station that students can use to update the apps on their iPads (Last year I had a dedicated local user account on my own Mac laptop to manage the iPads and, well, that sucked).
On to the apps! Here are some apps that we use and some sample learning artifacts from students that should give you a sense of how we are actually using the iPads:
Explain Everything: The iPad is great for drawing on with your fingers and it has a microphone, so why not talk and draw at the same time! That's the premise behind Explain Everything. Here are some examples from Tiffany and Bethany in my Anatomy class.
WordPress and BlogPress: Since I run a paperless classroom based on student blogs, these apps see a lot of heavy use. Besides the obvious benefits of being able to create and edit blogs on the iPad (I'm using the WordPress app to write this), a secondary benefit is that students without Internet access at home can work on drafts that can be saved on the iPad at home and published once they're back on the school's WiFi.
Evernote: If you are familiar with Evernote at all, you know that it can do a lot. It should be no surprise, then, that different students use Evernote in many different ways. Several AP Biology students (including Steven and Mandi) are using it to keep track of some of their long-term experiments, taking both notes and pictures that they then use later in blog posts. Another student and I use a shared Notebook in Evernote to make sure he doesn't lose his work, which for most of the first quarter seemed to never make it onto his blog. Using Evernote on both of our iPads lets me see his writing, even if it never makes it to his public blog.
Camera: No App Store link is necessary for this one, as long as you've got an iPad 2 or later model. The camera allows students to capture both still pictures and video. Some of the uses of pictures taken with the iPad can be seen on Evan's Chemistry blog where he captures a periodic table scavenger hunt sheet he did and at Ashley's Anatomy blog where she captures drawings from a histology lab. An example video is this one that Henry shot on his iPad in AP Biology to introduce the class to his viewers.
Skitch: Once students have pictures on the iPad, Skitch can be used to draw and annotate on top of those pictures for artistic and academic purposes. Some examples can be found on Leeanne's blog and Stephen's blog.
AirPlay and screen sharing: While not technically an App, one of the built-in features of the newer iPads is the ability to share the iPad screen over an AirPlay connection. In my room we use AirServer on my Mac to project student iPads onto the screen for the whole class to see. This has come in handy several times when those "google moments" happen in the middle of a discussion when a student wants to contribute something they just pulled up on their iPad. Much more about the technical side of AirPlay sharing can be found here.
Vernier Video Physics: I've mentioned this app before, but its awesomeness begs for it to be mentioned again. Students take videos of anything in motion and can create motion maps and graphs simply by marking where the object of interest is over time. Here's an example from a constant velocity buggy lab.
Prezi: If you've been a Prezi user as long as I have, you'll know that it has come a long way from its early days as a spinning, sometimes nausea-inducing replacement for powerpoint. These days there's a Prezi app, and, while it can't do everything that the web version can do, it does have some editing capabilities. I have several students currently working on Prezis, and some even prefer working on them on the iPad.
That's the wrap up of the apps we use most. Sure, there are several science apps on the iPads, too, like our Inkling Hole's Anatomy textbook, Visible Body, Frog Dissection, and Molecules, but these apps and books are content-specific tools that get used for a special purpose only every now and then. The real workhorse apps seem to be the ones that allow for manipulation of text, images, and video into new forms. These kinds of tools can be applied regardless of the content being discussed and give students creative new ways to show what they know.

One more tease before the awesome videos come. Yesterday you saw photos from the inaugural 'Gun Bowl charity bowling tournament. Soon you'll see all the action, the highlights, the endlessly amusing indie-celeb encounters in motion picture. We're really excited about them. To be real for a second: The main objective behind The 'Gum Bowl, aside from making the Earth a better place by benefitting The Adirondack Council, and capturing every moment so that we could share them with you, was FRIENDSHIP. We wanted people we love to love each other, by getting them to talk shit and drink and bowl. A huge thanks to the amazing roster of participants, some of whom were dealing with titanic commutes: Marnie Stern flew in from China just that morning, Class Actress's Elizabeth Harper and Neon Indian's Alan Palomo had just returned from tours of Europe, Kumail Nanjiani and Baron Vaughn both just hours from moving to Los Angeles after having television shows green-lit. Thanks to them, and to everyone that participated.
There was a good vibe on set. There were four teams and three matches (a first round and a championship), and during down time, the bowlers mixed and mingled, drank maybe too much, hatched future collabs, fell in love. I hosted a Bowler's Lounge where the cameras filmed and the teams talked about how much they loved charity and hated each other. This last set of tournament photos is about the action away from the lanes, the interviews, the Max Silvestri getting to know the Jon Glaser's crotch.
Later today we'll have a beautifully shot video of Woods's headlining set, performing from At Echo Lake. For now, another great spread from photographer Ryan Muir.
